Johnny Marr to score ‘Big Bang’ Film

Johnny is composing the original score for The Big Bang, “a neo-noir detective story” starring Banderas as a Los Angeles-based private detective, also starring are Delroy Lindo, Sam Elliott, William Fichtner and Snoop Dogg. “This will be Johnny’s first film score and he was just ranked the number one greatest guitarist of all time by Virgin Media,” producer Reece Pearson commented to MovieScore Magazine,
The director of The Big Bang is Tony Krantz, who was a producer on David Lynch’s Mulholland Dr. and Directed last year’s Otis. The music supervisor on the picture is Rudy Chung (Goal! The Dream Begins, Flicka). The film stars Banderas as a private detective who is searching for a burlesque performer who no one has ever seen. Banderas also faces a brutal Russian boxer, three LAPD detectives and an ageing billionaire looking to perfect the nuclear physics equivalent of the Big Bang.
